This is from the New Republic:

The economy is collapsing and the GOP is stuck with a candidate who doesn't know jack about economics. But what if Mitt Romney had won that hard-fought Florida primary and grabbed the nomination? Romney's whole business career was about turning around distressed companies. Plus, he's far less identified with George W. Bush than is McCain. And unlike McCain he might not have had to give up on Michigan, where his father was governor. (What state pray tell is McCain holding that Mitt couldn't?)

I know there are plenty of strikes against the guy. But it's an interesting counterfactual to consider--one that makes a lot more sense now that foreign policy has all but disappeared from the conversation.

If he was still in it, they would be hammering him on the foreign policy. The other side always picks out the weakness to harp on.

Just what does Obama know about economics? He's never run a company or government entity where as he had a budget or had to make payroll.

"The economy is collapsing and the GOP is stuck with a candidate who doesn't know jack about economics."

McCain sleeps with a woman who's business makes her $6 million per year: 1. why would he need to know anything about economics with her around to ask? 2. Peechee > can you make the same claim?

There are a lot of Cabinet slots that have to be filled.
So maybe Romney can fill one of them, like Secretary of
Treasury.
